Our students

Our students attend classes ranging from Kindergarten to Year 12.

Our students are very talented and have many interests. They regularly have opportunities to work with the Indigenous Hip Hop Projects group during school activities such as Desert Dust Up, as well as during school holidays.

Desert Dust Up 2017 Warburton - Dust Up is a festival based on sharing education and knowledge, as well as being a celebration across the lands. Our school campuses at Warburton, Warakurna, Jameson, Wanarn, Blackstone, Wingellina, Tjukurla & Kiwirrkurra - 8 communities within the Ngaanyatjarra Lands - come together as one for 3 days of festivities. The festival is structured around sport and athletics, music, dance and visual arts, health, strength and celebrating all things that bring our campus communities together.

Make sure you check out the 2017 Desert Dust Up music video created by with a strong and powerful message around education and learning not only in a school setting, but for your life in how you want to treat people and be treated in return. Respect.

Desert Dust Up 2016 Warakurna - The Ngaanyatjarra Lands School and IHHP came together in Warakurna to make another deadly song about Desert Dust Up 2016. Everyone involved had a great time; all the students, teachers and community. The high school students from Warburton wrote the song in a literacy program, and help with setting up and recording the vocals. They thought about all the schools of The Lands, and what each community is famous for.
